Android 4.3 spotted in the wild

Android 4.3 “Jelly Bean” has been spotted at the Thailand Mobile Expo.

Over on the XDA Developers forum, user “chaleen” has posted a few pictures of what he/she claims to be a Nexus 4 displayed at the Thailand Mobile Expo 2013. This phone shows to be running a completely new build of Android, JWR45B, using a kernel that was built just weeks ago. The About Phone screen also reads Android 4.3 as the OS version.

Based on these four screens, it’s presumed that Android 4.3 won’t see any drasticchanges in the interface – that will likely happen with Android 5.0 “Key Lime Pie”. That said, the new release will likely provide a handful of bug fixes and enhancements as seen with the transition from v4.1 to v4.2.
